Combined cycle power plants use both gas and steam turbines to generate electricity, making them more efficient than plants ...

When I began my power industry career years ago (initially in the chemistry lab of a coal-fired power plant), the criticality of proper chemistry control of steam boilers, cooling water systems, and ...

Many power plant personnel are aware that chemistry upsets in a steam generator may cause severe corrosion and failure of boiler waterwall tubes and other components. These failures place the staff at ...

Oklo has selected Siemens Energy to provide the steam turbine and generator for its first Aurora advanced reactor at Idaho National Laboratory.

Cycling a combined cycle plant places additional stresses on all equipment, but the impacts extend beyond the gas turbine and heat recovery steam generator. Plant owners and managers are beginning to ...

Pilsen (30/7/2020) – The Pilsen steam turbine manufacturer will supply two 50MW steam turbines, including other parts of additional technology and equipment, for one of the most modern power ...

All conventional power sources—from coal and gas plants to high-tech nuclear fission and potential future nuclear fusion reactors—boil down to the same basic thing: heating water into steam to spin a ...

Using steam to produce electricity or perform work via steam turbines has been a thing for a very long time. Today it is still exceedingly common to use steam in this manner, with said steam generated ...

Russian plans to build a metal-cooled small modular fast reactor have taken a step forward with the signing of contracts to develop, manufacture and supply steam turbines for both experimental and ...

Bruce A consists of four nuclear units: two Candu-791 reactors and two Candu-750 reactors. The new Siemens turbines will ...
